.no,be, Amateur detective.

Yesterday forenoon 3 young man en-
tered the station house, his appearance in
dicating that he had been having quite q
tramp, and informed officer Sullivan that
his name was Augustus Supan, resident
of Red Bluff. He was satisfied that he
had the qualifications OF first-class detec-
tive, and would like an opportunity TO de-
yelop them. consequently he had come to
Sacramento to try and get place ON the
force of "the finest" He certainly ap-
peared 10 have the physical qualifications
of an officer, being six feet three inches in
hight, weighed lS3 pounds. could run 100
yards in thirteen seconds and stay.
He admitted that ne had never had an OPP
portunity to develop his detective abilities
but they were great. For instance piece
OF cloth that man had worn, which had
became impregnated with his persplra
ton, he could use in following trail, like
bloodhound. In fact, he could work any
clue. no matter how small. Replying TO
officer Sullivans questions he said that he
had read works upon detective business
such as " Old Sleuthu and The Dude De-
tective." The latter individual he consid-
cred the most wonderful man in the pro-
fession. Seeing that his visitor was
deranged. officer Sullivan was about to
have him detained, when ii was observed
that he answered tolerably well the de-
scription of a man who had been frighten-
ing women and children up town. On be-
ing placed in the big cell, ne declared that
one of its occupants, Fred Mitchell, de-
tanned as witness, had his pipe. He de
tected it by the smoke. Mitchell was
smoking at the time, and admitted that he
had borrowed Supan's pipe on the previous
evening, when they were coming to the city
on the train, and had forgotten TO return it.
The return of his pipe caused the amateur
detective to feel more resigned to being
locked up, especially as he was reminded
that men in that line of business frequently
had such experience. Later in the day it
was found that he was not the person who
had frightened the uptown neighborhood
In the afternoon he was examined by the
Commissioners of Lunacy and told them
that bis parents resided in Red Bluff. and
that he had been sent to the Insane Asy-
lum from that place. The examination
convinced the Commission that he was
harmless, and that it would be we'll for
him to remain a few days in the county
Jail until his friends could be communi-
Gated with. A dispatch was received from
DR.. Hatch. of the Napa Insane Asylum,
last evening, stating that Supan was an es-
cape from that institution,

Westminster Chautauqua Circle.

The members of the Westminster C. l.. s.
c. held their last meeting for the season at
the residence of Misses Alice and Fanny
Foster, 61o Seventh street, ON Tuesday
evening last. Nearly all the members
were present. After the programme, and
when all were about to depart for home.
Miss Foster remarked that as the evening
was warm perhaps some might like some
ice water before leaving. Several suddenly
discovered that they were dry, and on en-
teriDg an adjoining room, they found a
table spread, elegantly and bountifuily, for
repast of cake aud ice cream. 1t proved
an agreeable and pleasant surprise Several
were bothered to make things equalize.
First their ice cream would give out, and
then the cake. Some made such poor cal
cIlations that it took four plates of ice
cream to come out even. A toast was
given To our fair hostesses; may the
blessings of long life of health and happi-
ness attend them" The party then adj
journed to the parlor, and Miss Foster.

Peculiarly constructed sIdewaIk,

In trent of the Office of w. P Coleman
they are laying an artificial stone sidewalk
of unique design. Two iron girders are
placed from the main building to the stone
curbing, about six feet apart. From these
Orders to the brick partition of the build
ing lines four iron rods are run as braces.
Temporary arches of grooved and tongued
pine lumber are placed in the space be-
tween the joists, upon which the concrete
is packed. After the solidifying of the con
crete these temporary arches are removed as
the concrete becomes self.sustaining. A
patent cellar light is placed in the concrete,
which may also be used as trap door, but
there is a main trap door of wrought and
cast iron. Hitching-posts of iron will also
be located. The cost of laying the POI feet
frontage is $3.50, without the trap doors.
This work is being done under the 6. Good
man patent. Adolph Teichert is the fore
man in charge.

How very different are things in Sacra-

violating the anti-lottery law in all these
years, which IS as plain as pikestaff, and
which has behind it the declaration of the
Constitution of the State. Here the police,
at any hour of the day. can find dealers
with lottery tickets in their possession.
They are displayed in show cases. peddled
ON the streets, hawked on the highways,
bought by men, women and children over
counters. and some dealers boldly hang
our flaming signs of the lotteries. Yet no
officer ever takes i'm anybody for this
defience of the law. Gu the contrary, if
we ere correctly informed, some of them

Too Close to be Pleasant.

About 10 O'Clock last Monday night a
young man named Holmes, who drives a
wagon for the box factory at Second and @
Streets was about TO enter his room, which
is built off the stable, back of the factory.
He unlocked and opened the stable door,
and as he did so man who had been in
side, apparently waiting for him, struck at
him with Ratchet such q powerful blow
that the weapon. missing him, sunk deep
into the door. The would-be assassin
then ran away, Holmes firing a pistol shot
at him unsuecessfully. He thinks the man
had some personal spite against him, theft
net being the design, as nothing in the
room had been disturbed. The Ratchet
was one that belonged on the premises,
and whoever used it had studied carefully
the position Holmes would be in when he
opened the door. 1t happened, however,
that be unlocked the door that night with
his left hand, something he had never done
before that he is aware of, and when he
opened it he stood in position somewhat
different from usual lie was SO much
alarmed that he did not occupy his room
that night.
